AQUATICS. THE CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE RIVER.—The forthcoming season will be most prolific, and will commence much sooner than usual. The Noblemen and Gentlemen of the Leander Club are in posses sion of the silver sculls, resigned by Mr. Julius, the Champion of the River. There will be several candidates for the honour. The will of the late Mr. Bell has been proved at Doctors' Commons, and the personalty sworn under 80,0001. The executors are Lord Langdale, Mr. Justice Littledale, sir. Wyatt, Mr. Spranger, and the testator's widow. MR. SWIFT AND MRS. KELLY.—This affair has already excited considerable interest, from its singularity and the indefatigable perseverance displayed on both sides. Mrs. K., far from being disheartened by her late defeat, has renewed the attack with unabated impetuosity. On the 25th of March, 1831, a marriage was contracted, according to the Italian laws and customs, between Mr. Wm. Swift and Miss Kelly. Her mother, who was opposed to the match, contrived to leave Italy with her daughter, and arrived in England. Mr. Swift immediately brought an action against her in the Arches' Court, which he lost ; but having carried the case before the House of Lords, the decision of the former Court was annulled, and the lady summoned to the conjugal residence ; to prevent which, Mrs. Kelly left England for France, whither she carried her daughter. Mr. Swift followed them, and on Wednesday week he met her in Paris, and little persuasion was necessary to induce her to repair to her husband's residence. Between eight and nine in the evening an individual, who announced himself as a member of the Chamber of Deputies, arrived at their lodgings, and requested to see Mr. Swift. The latter having refused to see him, a dispute arose between his brother, who was the bearer of the message, and the soi-disant Deputy, who insisted on seeing Mr. S., and added, that if that gentleman refused, he would have both him and his wife arrested by the gensdarmes. High words ensued on both sides, and the altercation began to take a serious turn, when Mr. Swift, fear ing the consequences, opened the door of the apartment, and demanded the purport of the stranger's intrusion, who pre tended that his quality of Member of Parliament authorised his intrusion into an Englishman's house; but his menaces making no impression on Mr. S., he took his departure, threatening to send the parties to prison. To avoid the scandal which such scenes might occasion, and to screen themselves from the fury of the mother, who would not fail to make every attempt to carry off her daughter, th e y oung cou pl e decided on going into the environs, and chose St. Cloud for the place of refuge. But the pretended Member was waiting in the street, and attempted to arrest them, crying a la garde, on which Mr. Swift put his hand before his mouth. During the scuffle the lady got into the coach, and Mr. S., with the assistance of his two brothers, succeeded in extricating himself from his anta gonist, and drove off. The disappointed Member cried out in vain to have them stopped. On their return to Paris they lived happily together until last Saturday, when, between three and four in the afternoon, the substitute of the Proctireor du Roi, accompanied by the Commissaire de Police, and escorted by police officers, arrived at the house, and carried Mrs. Swift, although a Protestant, to the Convent des Dames St. Michel. Her husband has protested against this strange proceeding of the Procureur du Roi. Mrs. S. will proba'..ly remain a pri soner in the convent until the decision of the tribunals sets her at liberty. —Paris Courier. MEETING OF MIDDLESEX MAGISTRASES.—A very numerous Court was holden yesterday at the Sessions house, Clerkenwell-green, for the despatch of important county business. On the motion of Mr. Hope, Sir William Curtis was unanimously called to the chair. Mr. M‘William gave notice of his intention to move, at the next County Court, to rescind the resolution of Colonel James Clitheroe, on the Ist of November last, that Benjamin Rotch, Esq., was unani mously called to the chair. The minutes of the 4th, 14th, and 28th of January last, were read. The Committee for Accounts and for General Purposes, presented the customary Report, which was destitute of public interest. Then Court then adjourned for a fortnight. WHEATEN BREAD v.

The quartern loaf is now selling at 63., and wages being steady, all classes have now the benefit Of a wheaten diet instead of an oaten or potato one.

They are united together by a ligatUre nearly four inches in length, and eight in circumference, formed at the extremity of the breast-bone of each, and extending down wards to the abdomen. The upper part of the ligature is a strong cartilaginous substance; the lower part is soft and fleshy, and contains a tube or cavity, presumed to be about an inch and a half in circumference. On the lower edge of the ligature, exactly in its centre, is situated the navel; that navel is common between them. If the ligature be touched in the middle, both are equally sensible of it; but if only half an inch from the middle, one alone perceives it. There is nevertheless a considerable degree of nervous sympathy be tween the two bodies • but it is en ti re l y overpowered by the operation of the mind. The flexibility of the cartilage is so great, that the twins can readily turn either shoulders to each other. No sooner had the King of Siam heard of the mar vellous connexion of Chang and Eng, than he issued imme diate orders for their destruction ; but on a representation be ing made to him, he recalled his mandate. At the age of fourteen the united brothers procured a boat, and commenced the business of roving merchants. A year expired. and they gave up their trade as pedlars, and embarked in a much more extensive., laborious, and important one—that of ducks and eggs.

He is a close observer of character and manners, with a strong 'rinse of the ridiculous and a graphic faculty of placing in the most whimsical and amusing lights the follies and absurdities of human nature. He has the power too, of producing tears as well as laughter. His pictures of the vices and wretchedness which abound in this vast city, are sufficient to strike to the heart of the most careless and insensible reader. The book is richly illustrated by the modern Hogarth, George Cruikshank, who has evidently surpassed any of his previous efforts. "_1 Chronicle. John Macrone, St. James's-square. IN IRELAND, WITHIN FORTY MILES OF DUBLIN, A FINE FREEHOLD INVESTMENT, INCLUDING 3,414 ACRES OF CAPITAL LAND, WELL TENANTED, AND RENTS PAID MOST REGULARLY. MR. GEORGE ROBINS has the pleasure to announce to the PUBLIC, that fie is directed to SELL by AUCTION, at Morrison's Hotel, Dawson-street, Dublin, on SATURDAY, the 9th of April, a t 12 o ' c l oc k, in 7 L o t s , w ith a view to the discharge of younger childrens' portions, and all the pecu niary obligations of THE LATE THOMAS COSBY, Esq., STRADBALLY HALL, ONE OF THE FINEST PROPERTIES IN IRELAND, and as a PERMANENT INVESTMENT FOR CAPITAL one of exceeding rare occurrence. It comp re h en ds A PORT ION OF THE TIMAHOE ESTATE, a well known estate, together with the MANOR AND MANORIAL RIGHTS AND THE LORDSHIP OF TIMAHOE, IN THE QUEEN'S COUNTY, desirably situate within 40 Irish miles of THE CITY OF DUBLIN. four from Maryborough and Abbeyleix, and within moderate reach of other very important market towns. It consists of 3,414 ENGLISH ACRES, divided with great care and judgment into very compact and service able farms, with suitable buildings, the whole lying together in a very advantageous manner, situate in the townlands of BALLINACLOITGH, AUGHONEY, TIMAHOE, ESKER, BALLINTLEA, COOLNEBACCA, KYLE, AND TOFSEY ; every farm is in excellent order, and well tenanted, and the rental, which exceeds THREE THOUSAND POUNDS A YEAR, is paid most punctually. It should in fairness be stated that the late possessor made a very considerable sacrifice of rental to insure so respectable a tenantry. It will not be amiss to state, with a view to remind the Irish, and to illumine the English capitalist, to point out a few advantages, that have had but little weight in their esti mation heretofore; it has been too mach the fashion to talk of Irish property as of supposititious value—the rental as exceedingly difficult in its collection, and the tenantry poor and dissatisfied. In some distant parts of Ireland, where land is over let, or rented by those real oppressors of the poor, THE MIDDLEMEN, it may be, that the foregoing remarks will occasionally apply ; but on this Pro perty, situate its the very best and most civilized part of Ireland, and within 40 MILES OF THE CAPITAL, a refreshing contrast is presented here, the people are happy, and a purchaser will delight to learn, there IS NOT AN ARREAR OF RENT; nor has there been, throughout the late times so unpropitious to the agriculturist. With this candid explanation it is hardly possible THE ENGLISH CAPITALIST can doubt the propriety of embarking a portion of his wealth in so safe an enterprise, the more especially as the rate of interest is beyond that which can be safely obtained on the English side of the channel : a great many other and importantadvantages might be enu merated ; a slight allusion to one or two will, it is confidently believed, prove seductive to those who would invest in safety. The greater portion of the Estate consists of VERY RICH MEADOW AND PASTURE LAND, of a quality that insures an immense return to the honest and in dustrious farmer, inasmuch :as, the best butter, and some of the fattest oxen, may be traced to this property ; and being surrounded by excellent roads and good markets; the produce is made available at the highest prices ; besides which, TWO EXTENSIVE RAILROADS, which will pass near this Estate, are in contemplation, and, when completed, will give a fresh impetus to industry, as the produce will arrive in less than three hours at the _ _ METROPOLITAN CITY. THE GREAT CLOUGH COLLIERY forms a boundary to the Timahoe Estate ; and it has been ascer tained that a great part of this property is under the Coal Field. AND THE GRAND CANAL, FROM DUBLIN TO CARLOW, passes within a convenient distance. Much more might be urged to enlist both the English and Irish capitalist, without giving too high a colour to the representation. This imperfect sketch will, however, terminate by a remark that should be highly appreciated. If the purchaser be inclined to reside on this highly favoured Estate, there are several most beautiful situa tions to build a suitable residence. The Plantations are numerous, of a fine growth, and the situation most picturesque. In conclu sion, Alr. Robins would direct a purchaser's attention to the SPLENDID SCENERY _ . . . for which this portion ofthe Kingdom is proverbial, and he invites THE STRANGER to seek occular demonstration, fully assured that he will admit the correctness of the by-gone statement of this excellent investment. There are no perpetual leases; NO MIDDLE MEN, NOR IS THERE ONE PAUPER on the whole of this property. With such a Landlord, the tenants have all been but too happy and well content, without asking for a lease, and it is believed, if the custo mary mode were adopted of letting these Farms by competition ONE THOUSAND A-YEAR ADDITIONAL RENT would be the result.

(FROM OUR Ott : Zi OkPESTONDENT.) At high-water yesterday at 12 A. M., ftii OA rose consider ably higher than has been known for many years; 01(110447 road under the West Cliff leading.to Sion-hill was inundatea, and on the bathing sands several hundred loads of chalk (lately deposited there to form an embankment) were washed away. A large steam-vessel, the Hercules, from Dublin to London, put in for shelter, the wind blowing hard at N. N. W. She had on board when she left Dublin several passengers, some soldiers of the 98th Foot, and about 800 hogs ; several of these animals have died during the last two days, and were thrown overboard previou's to her coming into this harbour. From the rough weather the passengers seem also to be in a lamentable condition. During the last night the wind con tinued to blow very hard, and having changed this morning to N. E., at high water it blew a tremendous gale. His Majesty's steam-packet the Arrow, from Dover to Ostend, was not able to proceed on her voyage to the latter port yesterday, on account of the weather ; she laid off this place all night ; about ten this morning she perceived a boat at a distance drifting ; she immediately made up to the boat, and found in it nine men, almost exhausted from fatigue, hav ing been several hours at sea; they were the crew of the brig Nancy, from South Shields, which got on shore on the Kentish Knock this morning, which they were obliged to abandon, and take to sea in their boat, when they were for tunately saved by the Arrow, and brought into this port. The Brockelbank steam-packet, from London to Boulogne, has also taken refuge here, and remains, together with the Hercules and Arrow—the weather continuing too boisterous for them to proceed to their places of destination. Several other vessels have also put in for shelter, as there is every ap pearance of foul weather. Per Cu trier.

CORPORATE REFORM, AND EXTINCTION OF TITHES.-011 Monday last a numerous meeting of the inhabitants of St. Paul's took place, for the.purpose of preparing and adopting petitions to Parliament for corporate reform, and for the ex tinction of tithes. On Sunday last a petition against tithes was signed before and after Mass at Fermoy, by the Roman Catholics present. ANTI-TITHE MEETING IN WEXFORD.--.OH Wednesday one of the most numerous and influential meetings ever witnessed in the neighbourhood, was held in the open air, at 13allyhast, at the base of the hill of Frankfort, there being no house in the neighbourhood sufficiently capacious to contain a " tithe " of the Test multitude that attended on this important occasion, to register their immutable hatred of the blood-stained system of church monopoly. Richard More O'Ferrall, Esq., M. P., has given a donation of 50/. to the Reform Registry Association. THE REGISTRY.—The Reformers and the Orangemen polled equal numbers on Monday last. COUNTY CLARE—JOHN O'BRIEN.— We congratulate the people of Clare on the appointment by the government of Lord Mulgrave of this patriotic gentleman to the office of High Sheriff of their county. ORANGEISM.—The iniquitous system of Orangeism will be speedily and impartially investigated, and eventually pronounced by the Legislature to be what it really is, creative of riot, dis turbance, and murder—calculated to foster and keep alive the worst passions of the worst class of mankind, and s u b vers i ve of all morality and good will among men. TITHES—DUKE OF DEVONSHIkE.—Were it not that we have it from an unquestionable source, we could have scarcely given credit to the startling communication, that his Grace the Duke of Devonshire actually appears as the plaintiff in several tithe actions filed this term for old tithe demands against some of the most respectable gentlemen in the county of Waterford, amongst the rest, against the High Sheriff of the county and several magistrates.—Dublin Post. On Monday his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant held his second Levee for the season at the Castle. Dean Dawson, and the other Deans, Archdeacons, Chan cellors, &c., who got up the Protest against the Memorial to the King, had the extreme modesty to transmit a copy of the Do cument to the Archbishop of Dublin, intimating that it had been placed at Milliken's for signature—expressing their opi nion that the Memorial, which it is understood has obtained his Grace's sanction, " was fraught with mischief and destruction of the stability of the establishment," and calling upon his Grace to give the• Protest circulation in his diocese, and to ap point some place where the clergy might sign it. To this ex. tremely impertinent demand his Grace returned a dignified and cutting reply. SUPPLEMENT TO THE LONDON GAZETTE OF TUESDAY. The following Notification is substituted for what appeared in the Gazette of Tuesday last : " OFFICE OF THE LORD CHAMBERLAIN TO THE QUEEN, QUEEN'S-HOUSE, ST. JAMES'S, FEB. 18, 1836. " Notice is hereby given, that it is the Queen's intention to hold a Drawing-Room on Wednesday, the 24th of February instant, being for the celebration of her Majesty's Birthday.
